Albion Rovers 1 Spartans 0

Relieved Rovers boss James Ward hailed his players for battling past their Lowland League opponents and avoiding another cup shock.

It was a potential banana skin for Rovers, who had crashed out at their first attempt on 11 consecutive occasions in all cup competitions.

Ward said: “We were very professional throughout the game and experienced enough to keep our shape and discipline at all times.

“I’m delighted for the fans who have not had much success in the cup of late.”

Spartans more than matched their senior counterparts but lacked a finishing touch

Rovers kept their composure and took the lead in 57 minutes. Scott Chaplain played in Mark McGuigan and his cross-cum-shot to the back post found its way in to the top corner, looping over the helpless Scott Bennett.

The visitors’ cause was not helped when John Grant was sent off in 78 minutes for a second bookable offence after a foul on Ryan Tiffney.

Spartans manager Dougie Samuel said: “It’s disappointing to take as the goal was a fluke. A draw would have been fair.”
